This Is Why You Should NOT Get Your Masters Degree | Advice from a Masters Graduate 

I guess there's no fixed point about this. It depends on the individual

Is there a rule that says you can't have both? I don't understand your binary thinking. Why can't you do both!! Certifications have to be maintained, otherwise, they lapse. A degree is done once and lasts for life. Also, the social capital from a master's is priceless.

And what are they going to say after you get the certifications and still don’t want to hire, it’s just a game… certifications don’t matter, I have a computer degree along with a healthcare administration degree, I can show you the rejected resumes I’ve got

8-10 years of experience and yet they don't hire?

@@94D33Mnope they don’t hire me, like I’ve said before the system is rigged. I’ve even networked with people on social media and friends were like email them, even tried that and the lady flat out ignored me, I didn’t even ask her for a job, I just asked her for some tips. What it’s really about is many current leaders are very jealous of my skills and background with my masters degree and they are doing everything to prevent me from getting ahead. I worked at this one job years ago, everyone in my training class was getting promoted and were at a job less than a year, when I confronted management about it, they were like you have to be here for a year, when I questioned about other workers being at the place less than a year, I was dismissed. I’m telling you something is screwy with the job market here in the USA. I’ve come to the conclusion colleges degrees don’t matter unless your a doctor or a lawyer. Additionally, all those stem courses these fools talk about people taking, I’ve taken all those course like computer programming, such as python, I’ve even replaced hard drives on my own time. I’ve done the same math doctors do such as trigonometry, algebra, and business management with excel courses, I’ve also plotted items and made charts in excel for healthcare trends, these people don’t care about others trying to get ahead except themselves. I’m sick of being offered 18 an hour when my skills, experience and education all says otherwise… These employers don’t care anymore, they will have AI (Artificial Intelligence take over by 2030) many support positions are gone, so out of a workforce of 162 million, half will be done to AI and I’ve done the research. The real problem in this country is politicians and the media lying to the public and saying oh it’s easy to get a STEM job or easy to get a healthcare job, it’s the biggest lie if I’ve ever heard of one. And I don’t want a job or career where my salary is 18 an hr. I want at least 50,000 to 60,000 a year because of inflation if you can’t pay it I’m not interested. I’m done with recruiter and hiring managers games… If you want talent you must pay a good salary and employers stop complaining you can’t find anyone when I myself have the skills, education and experience and you overlook my resume. Why don’t you people go on the news and say gee we have overlooked resumes that might be good in the workplace. I’m done with these lies, degrees and experience don’t matter I’m living proof, the job system in this country is not fair for some people

​@@KJJ782internship?

I am interested in the answer to this question, so i will comment so i get notified if she replies to you

@@kyabdul thank you for taking the time to answer. That cleared up a lot for me and I appreciate it. My only other question would be if I take a general MPH with no concentration would that make it any harder to get into a specific aspect? A lot of people told me that general MPH programs are usually for professionals with other credentials like pharmacists and doctors.

@@nataleelamberty582 interesting why didn’t the school tell me that before I got my MHA degree unbelievable

I have my degree in public health like your degree.. I’ve applied to government jobs, private sector jobs, they basically hire who they want, they don’t consider experience or education. I’ve sat with engineers at my low paying job, now you would think gee an engineer they have all kinds of jobs in that field, nope they also work at low paying jobs. The real issue in this county is the over abundance of talent and less opportunities. The politicians and the media lie about this all the time, they pretend it’s easy to find something. I’ve done everything they told me to do, for my degree, got experience, networked, stayed positive, and still nothing. This country always talks about how China has propaganda, what do you think our political leaders are doing about jobs reports for the economy? The bottom line is our economy is doing awful and programs like social security and Medicare are going broke, the government is 32 trillion in debt, backed by high inflated securities, yet the federal reserve keeps printing money like water. The dollar to worth ratio has been going down for years. It should have stayed backed by gold

@@KJJ782So true! Completely regret getting my stupid MPH. Now I’m in debt and jobless. Di everything “they” told me to do 😢

I say do what is best for you but it’s better to study at graduate school whilst your young. Your future self will thank you for just getting it out of the way I promise

Yup this is true!

Thank you so much for your feedback 😍😍😍 can’t wait to watch these videos i am sure they will very helpful .

Word

Alright, thanks for the motivation

Depends on the major. For example, with just a bachelor's in Psychology, there are not a lot of opportunities if you decide to work in that field. A higher degree is usually needed to have specific careers in this area.

Totally agreed. We can't even justify our BS fully then what is the point of stacking up further with an even greater load of other degrees.

@@anah433 someone with a bachelor's in psych & brain sciences- there's truly not much you can do with it unless you go higher in education.

As someone who just recently graduated with an MPH, DON’T get an MPH. Jobs are oversaturated and very low pay. MPH programs are cash grabs. Work experience is what actually matters

in?

Lol….did you watch the video? Clearly you did not. I got jaw surgery but I can still tell people interested in the surgery not to get it as a result of the risks..2 things can be right as once.

depends
